Duncan Trussell on Battling Your Inner Demons and Self Judgement

[@crono3339]

I was thinking "This woman's voice, it's so calm and reassuring and I KNOW I've heard it somewhere!" Then I realized it was Duncan's mom and it just made me emotional. It's pretty awesome to share something like this with the world, thanks brother! And your timing was impeccable to share this snippet!

Have you seen midnight gospel? Its wonderful and there's an episode with his mom that's just incredible.

It's his mom

[@twisted_limbs420]

@crono3339 the voice in this is his mom

[@phillipadams4691]

That's so wild. I came to the comments to say that her voice gave me a comforting nostalgia of my mother's voice from childhood. I also grew up in NC and my mom is from here as well. That's so cool that he can talk to his mom like this. What a blessing.

[@STYROFOAMradio]

my depression is trying to kill me again. I'm reaching for any wisdom that truly inspires me. Duncan is my guru.

[@KyleJFalcon]

You're among friends ❤

[@gloriaharbin1131]

I understand. Wishing for some lighter days for you. Sending love.❤

[@jpxgs]

its trying to kill itself, ur just in the way for now.

[@noahboucher125]

We call that the enemy. The good outweighs the bad

[@Skrillon]

I'm going through the same thing in my own way... Mines more so shame.

[@vegmoto]

What a lucky man to have been raised by this awesome woman. She really set him up to succeed. What a great mom.

[@Obiwancolenobi]

Duncans last talk with his mom fucking BROKE me in Midnight Gospel . I watched it just after losing my own mom.

[@harpomarxist4185]

It breaks me every time, to this day. It was an amazing finale.

[@Obiwancolenobi]

@@harpomarxist4185 I sob like a baby

[@FoulBundy]

Hearing this woman speak makes sense of why Duncan is so damn peaceful and calming to listen to.

[@devinschwartz7596]

Duncan’s mom is so comforting man idk why. She was so great

[@cesararellanes6188]

I see it as: Just allow yourself to be. Don't suffer for achivement because you have already achieved it.

[@Speppus]

Idk if this is Duncan's actual channel ,but, I just want to say everything that you have put out has helped me stumble through life stubbing my toes a little less. You are an incredible person.

[@duncantrusselltripzone]

🥰 I'm so glad. I'm just a fan that also adores Duncan

[@michaelsly267]

The silver mouse helped me through the hardest time I've ever been through to accept. You are blessed to have such a great mother.

[@lederek5329]

I've listened to part 1 and part 2 of "My Mom" atleast a dozen times. It's an absolute blessing of a message, and have truly appreciated the content. I learn so so so much each and every time I listen. Thanks brotha love you dawg. Your an unrepeatable miracle to the universe. Thanks for being you. Ok I'm done.

[@jtcrowder2265]

i just read that Deneen (duncans Mom, who is speaking ... sadly passed away just 3 WEEKS after speaking on this episode with Duncan. im guna listen to it so much more intently now.

[@B1gDuck]

i love when duncan interviews people he throws in scenarios or simpler statements that are easier to imagine and how it can affect you . and he also makes people explain certain things that they say

[@psychicerinsears]

I didn't realize this was his mom. I hope I can communicate with my kids like this

[@patricktoole3687]

Man hearing his mum made me sad. I thought about my own mum. Cherish the ones who love you whilst they’re still here!

[@deeehmt_305]

❤ the sweetest voice you’ll ever listen to‼️ We Love and Miss your Momma Duncan. ❤ you as well.

[@savanna4127]

Duncans mom reminds me of a version of Abraham Hicks in this. I have not heard of her before but she sounds like a lovely soul. 💖 I love this discussion.

[@SleepyGraphingCalculator-zl9vx]

😮😮😮 sounds just like her!!!!!

Duncan, I don't have the words. Thanks buds.

[@ToddyPoddy-fy5dc]

I have a second identity within me. It discourages and disassociates anything that is divine. It has a cynical reductionism to my own experiences and that of others that have had the experience of Neem Karoli Baba. This entity, which is some part of me, often associates the personality of my bullies, or people I think are smart, wealthy, influential and often they say a statement that immediately challenges my identity, self-esteem and faith. I almost always give in to its thinking, use its personas to deny all that I am. Then very slowly and tiredly, after a temporary victory, I go back to Maharajji. It's very tiring. I feel happy whenever I realise my faith in Maharaji and of his unconditional love. And then a few days later, immediately this negative part of me comes and uses many words to essentially deny this experience that I and many others have had. I was lucky to read 'Whispers of the Heart'. I know how all of us go through this, and how Maharajji was there to lessen the pain. I am thankful for that. Thank you Duncan.

[@Mc-3260]

Wow this concept that being mean to yourself is loyalty to mother.. a form of not wanting oneself to grow up.. as an empathic person we interpret it as someone who is too hard on themselves, needs additional support (and they do) but really, the ones who are able to get over that hurdle are the ones who really want to get better. Brilliant.

[@malibrat]

Really needed to hear this today ❤

[@henseltbrumbleburg3752]

I love this woman, she has such an incredible mind.

[@RxLifestyleVitalism]

❤ WOW!!! I love Duncan!! Thank you for sharing this piece. I’ve really been struggling with mental health lately- and my only reprieve is going deep into Wim Hof breathing… sometimes I find myself really efforting to “push through” & “get there” again-- or just checking out and giving up hopeless that it won’t ever show up. THEN, right as Ms Momma Trussel said “there’s nothing to do” “I’m already there” something like “it’s already happening for me”-- exactly as I heard those words, I saw a shooting star 🌠

[@RxLifestyleVitalism]

💓thank you 🙌

[@libertylifestyles3806]

This pod is great!! Ty!!

[@weaviejeebies]

I am not afraid of stopping judging myself. In fact I feel sick of judging myself. But it's so ingrained and habitual that it seems impossible. It's an almost identity in and of itself. I set my intention to stop listening to it and live without its cruelty, and 10 seconds later, it's coming at me again in some new disguise. I have no idea how to drop it. I can't do psychedelics because I'm on so much medication it puts me at risk for cardiac arrhythmia. I meditate for an hour every day. I go to therapy. Nothing works. I just keep seeing it. There you are again, self-judgment, I know you think it's super important for me to feel like a POS. I disagree right now. Thanks for checking in. And then 30 seconds later, there you are again, self-judgment.... It stirs upba lot of frustration at the stickiness of it.

[@KillerKaiju54]

Yeah it’s relentless… sounds like you’re doing all the right things though. This self judgement has been ingrained almost all your life so it will take a while. Every time it shows up you just gotta accept its presence and gently remind it I don’t need you anymore and hopefully, eventually, it’ll start to subside. We’ll probably never be entirely rid of it, I guess the point is not to rid yourself of it but get to a point where you no longer let it influence you. Hope you’re doing well man!

[@HBCrigs]

I have a schizo diagnosis. im an addict. im living in my moms house and im still using because of course i am. how could i survive this otherwise? just waiting and listening. all is held. thank you mama.

Duncan’s Mum is awesome…..and she liked Duchess Kate too! I needed to hear her today, i miss my Mum x

[@stackbundles848]

whar a beautiful conversation

[@NancyTrimble-z6c]

Just Wow! This is beautiful.

[@AlexReynard]

I am trying really hard, but I cannot follow a word of this. It sounds like I'm listening to filler text. Like someone wrote nonsense dialogue for the background of a movie scene. I feel like I'm going crazy trying to parse any of this. Actual rising anxiety. Like, it feels like I'm at a party, hearing people talk and have a good time, and they're discussing topics and jokes and references I have absolutely no knowledge of, and they keep looking at me, laughing, like I'm supposed to understand and contribute to the conversation. It's actually rather terrifying.

[@levistanton4334]

Thanks for this upload.

[@scottward6974]

I can't help be insanely impressed by Kim Kardashian. She fully embraced the circumstances in which she found herself, which is the material world! From a mere sex tape she managed to build herself up into a phenomenal success story. That must have taken a fair amount of intelligence and graft. Ray J is now worth $14M and she's well on the way to her second BILLION!!! She could now buy him out over 120 times!
